- Summary
- nfsd: initialise nfsd_info.mutex early.
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: initialise nfsd_info.mutex early.
nfsd_info.mutex can be dereferenced by svc_pool_stats_start() immediately after the new netns is created. Currently this can trigger an oops.
Move the initialisation earlier before it can possibly be dereferenced.
